In an unrelated incident, a Gasparillo man survived a shooting attack with only a leg wound on Saturday night.
Police said Alex Rahim, 23, was with a group of people along Johnson Street, Gasparillo, when gunshots rang out.
Rahim along with others made a dash for cover, but he soon realised he was shot. Rahim was taken to the San Fernando General Hospital where he was treated for a gunshot wound. Police responded and searched the area for the gunman, but no one was found up to yesterday. Investigators believe Rahim was not the target and the gunman was out to get someone suspected to be involved in drugs.
